OK, this is because sys/ptms.h requires sys/streams.h to be included 
first (for the definition of queue_t).  The attached patch fixes it (and 
sets the bug-list macro so the warning has the right address on it too). 
  You will need to run "autoconf" to rebuild configure if you try this 
patch.

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
